Biography
Lance Wilson was born in Compton, California to an African-American family, and he grew up on Grove Street in the house next to Sweet Johnson and Carl Johnson. He dealt drugs since the age of ten, and he was thrown out of school for attacking a teacher who was wearing purple, the color of the Ballas gang. Lance "Ryder" Wilson became a close friend of Grove Street Families leader Sweet Johnson and became one of the highest-ranking GSF OGs, and Big Smoke convinced Ryder to join him in betraying the Grove Street Families so that they could deal crack cocaine on the streets and get rich. He kept this betrayal secret, working with Sweet's brother Carl to steal guns from Colonel Fuehrberger's house in Long Beach and to steal weapons from the California National Guard at their depot. His betrayal was discovered by CJ when he saw him speaking with Big Smoke and some C.R.A.S.H. officers next to the green Sabre used in the drive-by that killed CJ's mother. CJ fled Los Angeles as Sweet was arrested, and he later found Wilson taking part in deals with T-Bone Mendez in San Francisco, bringing drugs from San Francisco down to Los Angeles. Carl ambushed a deal with T-Bone at Pier 39, and Ryder attempted to flee on a speedboat. Carl chased him down and destroyed his boat, ending the traitor.
